REMEMBERING TYRONE POWER AND CROTON'S ERIC KNIGHT TOO

Tyrone Edmund Power III, who died this date in 1958, was an American film, stage and radio actor.

From the 1930s to the 1950s, Power appeared in dozens of films, often in swashbuckler roles or romantic leads. His better-known films include The Mark of Zorro, Blood and Sand, The Black Swan, Prince of Foxes, Witness for the Prosecution, etc.

Click on the ad for Power and Joan Fontaine in the 1942 film, THIS ABOVE ALL. Set in World War II, the film is adapted from the Eric Knight novel of the same name. 

For those who don't know, Eric Knight (also the author of Lassie Come Home) was one of Croton's most notable residents.  Read more about Knight here
